This is the most advanced "wife bad" boomer meme I've come across
I didn't intepret this as "bad"?
My understanding is that the original artist is complaining that his girlfriend complains but doesn't want him to just fix her problems. It comes across like she's a fool for disregarding his solutions, when in reality he's not emotionally intelligent enough to understand sharing problems isn't always about wanting to hear a solution.
Think that's where we differ though - I don't think the artist is complaining, just observing. If my significant other has a quirk and I identify it even in meme format, that doesn't mean I'm demonising them no? Some of my friends who are women complain about when I offer solutions to problems they just want to rant about so I related to this in a way - imo that's not a bad thing, just different and perfectly valid. My GF however likes when I give her inputs on how to handle situations. Both are fine, and I actually preferred my female friends telling me they don't like it because then I could ask my girlfriend or even just other friends (men and women) "by the way, do you like when I offer solutions or would you prefer me to just listen?" The difference between this and boomer humour is the latter would then go onto say "that's why I hate my wife" lol.
I'd say you'll learn differently but I suspect that won't be the case
May I suggest couples counseling if this is how you're feeling
